Dear User Group Director:

Do you have members in your user group who'd like to earn money while doing what
they do best - working with computers?

Cambridge Group is looking for part-time sales consultants - Cambridge
Colleagues - to sell the 288 portable computer on campus at colleges and
universities in your area.

The 288 is easy to sell. It's unique, inexpensive, and it really helps students
get better grades!

The Z88 is about the size of a notebook - less than an inch thick, less than two
pounds - so it goes everywhere - classroom, library, even the beach. Word
processing and spreadsheet programs are built in. The keyboard is silent and
the Z88 runs for twenty hours on 4 AA batteries.

Classroom notes and course work can be permanently stored and instantly
retrieved. Writing term papers is a breeze.

Even students who already own a desktop computer can use a 288. They can't take
their desktop computer to class, but notes typed on a Z88 can be transferred in
a few seconds to Apple Macintoshes and IBM and compatible PCs.

Cambridge Group is looking for entrepreneurial personal computer users to sell
the Z88 on campus. We'll provide training and literature, including a video
tape, as well as technical support, and everything else necessary to ensure
success.

We would appreciate it if you would bring this opportunity to the attention of
your members. If you would like multiple copies of the enclosed flyers so they
can be passed out at a meeting, please give us a call at 890-458-9988.

Any of your members who are interested in selling the best portable computer
available, making money, and having fun in the process, should also call us at
800-458-9088 and ask about becoming a Cambridge Colleague.

Thank you.

Harvey Goldsmith

November 12, 1998

wa:- A

Dear Andy,

1, too vant to see TIMELINEZ grow and 1 hope
this little game will help. It started out as a
copy of The Price is Right's game in which the
contestant has to choose the first and last tuo
numbers in the price of the car. That's ckay on
TV because there's a real car at stake, but in

ae

the program I urote on my TS 1688 it was just c pee
another quess-the-number game. find then my Muse il 3ST!
hit me. I changed the numbers into words. Out A P THE
of 12 uords in a DATA list, at least 11 new ones OU, BU
can be made, and otentimes many wore, so it ED-CBR
takes more that were guesswork to beat it. ERT

Hy thought . to enlist other Sinclairists te
expand on WIN A CAR! First of all, it needs
many more OaTA lists, and that's an interesting
job in itself. Each word must be part of the
vord folloving it so that MAY, BE, CONE, BACK,
PACK, etc., form MAYBE, BECOME, COMEBACK , BACK-
PACK, etc. Since vords are £0 versatile the
same ones can be used again and again in differ-
ent combinations, even vithin one DATA list.

Five-letter vords? There's room on the grid and
IV could be redefined in Line 7@. It can be in-
proved in many ather ways - sound, color, move-
ment, and all kinda stuff like that there.

Host sincerely,

Gertie Andersson

INDEX—BUBBLE SORT
By Timothy Swenson

The Index-Bubble sort isa
variation on the Bubble sort. It
is very useful if you have a
database with large records.

This sort needs an extra
array additional to those that
hold your data. The first cell
in this array points to the first
record, and so on down the array.
As the sort goes through the
database, the actual record is
not moved. In a straight Bubble
sort it would be moved. If you
have large records this takes
time.

In the Index-Bubble sort the
index array is moved, not the
database. Look at the diagran.
The third index has a value of 3.
It points to the third record.

Note that the third record
is greater than the fourth
record, so they need to change
places. Instead of moving the
records, the value or pointer in
the index array is moved.

After the change the third
index now has a value of 4,
pointing to Hatfield. So in the
index, Hatfield is lower than
Wilson. These two records are
sorted, but they have not moved.
Their index pointers have moved
for then.

If you have more information
than just last name and first
name it would be no more effort
to sort it than now. The time
the sort takes depends only on
the amount of records and not how

much data is stored in the
records.

Type in the program below
and see how this works. Note
that the array FirstS is not
touched at all in the sort. The
sort itself would not have to be

changed to add more fields.

An index is really an array
that points to the records ina
sorted manner. In a large

Sinclair QL

529

database, it is possible to have
a variety of indexes of the
database sorted on numerous
fields. There is no need to have
a copy of the database for each
sort. Indexes same memory and

No. 89-1055, on the terms and conditions described below. In
support of this Motion, Movant states as follows:

2 ie The Debtor filed an original petition for relief under
Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on
September 11, 1989, and remains in possession and control of
its property.

2. Casco Northern Bank, N.A. and The Bank of Boston
(together the “Banks”) claim a first priority lien on all
personal property of the Debtor to secure the Debtor's
obligations under a guaranty of the obligations of New England
Sales, Inc. ("NES") to the Banks. The Banks claim a second
priority lien on all personal property of the Debtor as
assignee of a lien and Promissory Note payable to NES or order
in the original principal amount of $1,000,000.00 executed by

the Debtor.

INEL INEZ. CAMBRIDGE 288 533

aux On September 11, 1989 the Debtor commenced an
adversary proceeding against the Banks and NES seeking to avoid:
(a) a payment in the amount of $657,000.00 made to
the Banks, within a year prior to the petition
date; and
(b) the liens of the Banks and NES; and
(c) the Debtor's guarantee of the obligations of NES.

4. On September 11, 1989 the Debtor filed its moe VonL6
Use Cash Collateral And To Determine Cash Collateral. On
October ____, 1989 the Debtor, the Banks and NES filed a
Stipulation Providing for Use of Collateral and Adequate
Protection (the "Stipulation”"). The Stipulation is contingent
on a final order granting this Motion. This Motion is
contingent on a final order approving the Stipulation.

5. By this Motion the Debtor seeks authority to dismiss
the pending adversary proceeding with prejudice and release the
Banks and NES from any and all liability under 1l U.S.C.

§§ 547, 548 and 550.

6. Approval of this Motion is in the best interests of
the Debtor's estate. Avoidance of the $657,000 payment and the
liens of the Banks and NES is of only limited value to the
Debtor because those creditors hold approximately 80% of the
total claims against the Debtor. Moreover, the Stipulation,
which is contingent on granting of this Motion, permits the
Debtor to sell its inventory on terms which will maximize the
value of the inventory, allow the Debtor to remain a going
concern and provide the Debtor an opportunity to reorganize for

the benefit of all creditors.

WHEREFORE, the Debtor, requests that the Court grant this

Motion for Approval of Compromise and grant such other relief

as justice requires.

FE. The Banks' security interests were duly, timely and
properly perfected by, inter alia, filing a UCC-1 financing
statement with the Maine Secretary of State on November 14,
1989.

G. On or about October 31, 1988, the Debtor executed and
delivered to NES a Promissory Note in the original principal
amount of $1,000,000. The Promissory Note was secured by a
Security Agreement of even date granting NES a security
interest in the same collateral that SSI had pledged to the
Banks.

H. NES's security interests were duly, timely and
properly perfected by, inter alia, filing a UCC-1 financing
statement with the Maine Secretary of State on November 17,
1989. By Assignment dated October 31, 1988, NES assigned to
the Banks the Promissory Note from the Debtor and the Security
Agreement securing the same.

Tes On July 14, 1989, the Banks advised the Debtor that
the obligations of NES were in default and demanded payment of
the same in accordance with the Debtor's Guaranty. When

proceedings against NES, the Debtor and other affiliates in the
Maine Superior Court by Complaint dated August 22, 1989.

J's On September 8, 1989, the Banks filed with the
Superior Court a motion seeking, inter alia, a writ of replevin
with respect to the Debtor's inventory and equipment. By order

was a reasonable likelihood that the Banks would prevail on the
merits.

K. On the Filing Date, the Debtor was in default of its
obligations to the Banks and was, and still is, justly and
truely indebted to the Banks in an amount in excess of
$2,800,000.

L. Pursuant to Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code the
filing of the petition for relief by the Debtor stayed the
Banks from taking any action to collect the indebtedness owed
by the Debtor to the Banks or to enforce their liens on the
collateral without leave of the Bankruptcy Court.

M. On the Filing Date, the Debtor filed its Motion to Use
Cash Collateral and to Determine Cash Collateral, which Motion
was properly noticed for hearing before the United States
Bankruptcy Court on October 12, 1989.

N. Also on the Filing Date, the Debtor commenced an
adversary proceeding against the Banks and NES pursuant to 1l
U.S.C. §§ 547 and 548 seeking, inter alia, to avoid the liens
of the Banks and NES, to avoid the Debtor's guarantee of the
obligations of NES, and to recover certain payments made to the

Banks (the “Adversary Proceeding").

Banks pursuant to this Paragraph shall be credited toward the
Debtor's obligations under Paragraph 5 above for the subsequent
month. The Debtor's obligations hereunder are subject to

liens against the Collateral, but the Banks shall have no other
recourse or remedy against the Debtor or its estate except as
provided in Paragraphs 8 and 10 above.
